The most important unit of any given community is family, and the existence and sustainability of the family is tied to the behavioral patterns and cultural framework of this fundamental unit of the community.

We start our discussion with a recommendation about married life:

Anyone can make mistakes in his lifetime. If your care for your spouse, and seek a healthy and dynamic relationship, you should make every effort not to repeat your previous mistakes. Furthermore, instead of reminding your spouse about his/her failures and errors, you should reinforce and cement the positive behavioral patterns in both of you. Enjoy each other's company, and ponder and talk about the topics which you want. If you really care about your spouse, make utmost efforts not to hurt his/her feelings. Although it is a difficult task; stop dwelling in the past, in order to prevent harboring any resentment. Remember that your spouse is standing by you.

Recognition of the righteous path in life within the family, and maintenance and guidance of family towards elevated paths is in need of a roadmap and a comprehensive plan so that an emotional bond is established among the family members, and this fundamental unit is kept safe and reassuring. Given the importance of this topic, the Leader of Islamic Revolution declared the general policies of family in sixteen clauses, as a document and roadmap for protection and reinforcement of the foundation of family.

The policies declared by the Leader of Islamic Revolution put emphasis on reinforcement of families based on the Islamic role model; and uniformed application of the educational and media capacities of the country in order to cement the foundation of family and familial relationships. Promotion of livelihood and economy of family upon actualization of the families' potentials for alleviation of future concerns over occupation, marriage, and accommodation are some of the other topics of importance, which have been presented in these policies.

Generally speaking, the policies declared by the Leader of Islamic Revolution revolve round making efforts to establish a productive and effective family. A productive family is one within which emotional bonds are formed, with family members feeling safe and secure; children are brought up in an ethical and lawful manner; the solidity of the foundation of community is maintained upon giving birth to children; and skills are taught for economic production.

The behavior of the Leader of Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, in his personal life, shows the importance and significance of family. The Leader of Islamic Revolution has always maintained and safeguarded the honor of his spouse.

In the view of the Leader of Islamic Revolution, emotions should grow and develop within families and children should be treated with kindness.

In the final part of the episode, we pay a glance at the relationship among spouses:

A woman says that her husband badmouths everyone whenever he is upset or angry. She adds that she is at her wit's end and doesn't know what to do about this problem.

Anger and rage appear in different forms. For instance, women usually cry or talk to others whenever they are angry. But, men usually remain silent, with some of them badmouthing others whenever they are enraged.

Whenever you encounter a toxic environment, it is best to manage it with intelligence and prudence. Changing the talking point is one of the approaches which can help alleviate tension. Sometimes, it is best to leave the venue.

It should be reminded that anger is a behavioral pattern. We choose how to behave. So those, who verbally abuse others can learn to express their demands, needs, and failure in a more appropriate, constructive, and effective manner.

If you come to realize that your behavioral pattern has enraged and angered your spouse; apologize. This is crucial for mending relationships and soothing the detrimental impacts of rage.
